Welcome to the restyled Lincolnshire Bat Group Website.
Whether you are here because you are:
- a member of the public who has found a grounded bat and needs to know what to do with it,
- already a member looking for survey information, events to help with or old meeting minutes,
- a prospective new member hoping to find out what we do, when and where, and how to join us,
- someone who wants to find out more about the bat flying around their garden at night or to make their garden more bat-friendly.
We hope we will have the information you are looking for.

If you have a general enquiry:
Call 01526 344726 (between 9:00am and 5:00pm), or email via info@lincsbatgroup.co.uk
